When defining a term such as “ILBI”, when experts explain what it is, they say that it is a special unique procedure that makes it possible to influence cellular and microcellular structures in order to restore them and improve basic functions.

Under the influence of radiation, the internal tissue environment is normalized, its damage disappears, and pathological processes gradually begin to cease. At the same time, no harmful influences penetrate into the human body. Everything is built on the fact that self-regulation is triggered.

Nowadays, a person spends all day in the range of a cell phone, the electromagnetic field of a computer, gasoline vapors, radiation from a TV, exposure to microwave ovens, and adverse environmental influences.

Therefore, laser blood purification is necessary; too many negative agents affect modern man. Constant nervous tension also significantly affects the conditions for cell mutation and stimulates the release of large amounts of hormones.

Many people suffer from allergic reactions due to negative influences on their immune system.

Intravenous laser blood purification is carried out by introducing an optical fiber into a peripheral vessel through which irradiation occurs. This process significantly speeds up the patient’s recovery, improves his well-being and reduces the risk of relapses and complications after illnesses.

Any human organ is washed by blood and therefore laser therapy will help restore it to health. There is another way to do it. For those who suffer from venous insufficiency, who are not suitable for the intravascular method, have undergone chemotherapy, or have another prescription from the attending physician, percutaneous exposure is used. It does not carry any pain, discomfort or risk of possible complications.

Indications for the intravenous laser irradiation procedure

• Human papillomavirus;
• herpes;
• infertility;
• hormonal imbalance;
• difficulties with conception;
• diseases of the genitourinary area;
• atherosclerosis;
• bronchial asthma;
• frequent respiratory infections;
• arthritis;
• chronic inflammation of the maxillary sinuses and sinuses;
• venereal diseases;
• dermatological problems;
• a sharp decrease in immunity;
• recovery after surgery;
• rehabilitation after serious illnesses;
• rejuvenation;
• chronic fatigue syndrome, etc.

In these cases, laser blood cleaning allows you to completely destroy the infection, significantly stabilize the functioning of internal organs, and eliminate possible congestion. It helps eliminate pain, relieve swelling, and reduce the inflammatory process.

This procedure makes it possible to increase protective forces, cleanse the blood of toxic substances, and activate lymph circulation in the tissues.

Typically, a specialist recommends 5 to 10 sessions. They should be carried out daily, the duration may vary. They usually last from 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the patient’s condition, as well as therapeutic and preventive needs. According to medical requirements, this course can be repeated after three months.

Therefore, when intravenous laser irradiation of blood is prescribed, the indications for it most often relate to chronic conditions, severe deterioration of organs and tissues, and damage to cellular structures. It is especially often prescribed for diseases requiring surgical interventions. They are carried out before operations to eliminate trophic ulcers, burns, and phlegmon. This procedure is also recommended in the postoperative period for the treatment of hemorrhoids, anal fissures, paraproctitis, mastitis, as well as prostate cancer.

In what cases is it better not to carry out the procedure?

Intravenous laser irradiation of blood, or, as it is also called, “vlok,” triggers biostimulation, eliminates dysfunction of organs and systems, and activates recovery processes. However, before undergoing it, you must consult a specialist. Unfortunately, this purpose is not for everyone.

It is better not to perform intravenous laser blood purification in patients who have:

• Hematological diseases;
• pronounced cardiopathology;
• hypertension;
• hypotension;
• pathology of the thyroid gland;
• metabolic disorders;
• strong and persistent increase in temperature;
• renal failure;
• chronic liver diseases;
• oncology;
• tuberculosis;
• syphilis;
• intolerance to ultraviolet radiation;
• cachexia;
• mental illnesses;
• alcoholism;
• drug addiction;
• pregnancy.

Contraindications are explained mainly by the fact that in the presence of malignant tumors, such a procedure can significantly speed up the process of cell division, and in case of serious heart diseases, create disturbances in intracellular conductivity or change the balance of water-salt metabolism in the body.

This effect is intense, so if a vital organ fails or suddenly weakens, it is better not to carry it out.

The human body is exposed to numerous negative impacts from a polluted environment, numerous radiations, and low-quality products. Frequent stress and lack of sleep provoke the onset of diseases at a young age.

Scientists have found a way to support the body, strengthen the immune system, and restore strength and health. Intravenous laser irradiation of blood helps a person cope with the problems of the modern world.

ILBI— this is the medical abbreviation for intravenous laser irradiation of blood.

The essence of the method

The therapeutic effect on the body of ILBI spreads through the circulatory system. Low intensity ones are fed into the vascular canal and cause a blood reaction.

Light therapy in various forms was tried to treat diseases many centuries ago. Only modern technologies have made it possible to obtain amazing results.

The laser energy acts on the electrical charge of the blood cell, knocking out an electron from its molecule. The structure of the cell changes, motor ability increases, and the cell strives to recover. This is how cell renewal occurs, then tissue renewal, thanks to intravenous exposure.

The ILBI procedure is carried out in specialized rooms. Devices are used that can reproduce light waves in the red and blue spectrum. When exposed to red radiation, the session lasts half an hour. Modern technology makes it possible to produce a blue wave, which reduces the procedure to seven minutes.

The patient is asked to lie down on the bed before the session. His basic parameters (pulse, blood pressure) are measured. Then a special needle with a diode connected to a laser source apparatus is inserted into the vein. After a certain time, the system turns off on its own. The client does not feel pain or discomfort. The session takes place quickly; no lifestyle changes, preparation or dietary restrictions are required.

The number of sessions depends on the person’s age, health, and the presence of chronic diseases.

The standard course is 8 – 10 procedures. After six months, you can re-treat. Positive changes will be felt after the first procedure.

Scope of application

Under the influence of the ILBI procedure, significant improvements occur in the blood supply system. For example, the mobility of red blood cells increases. They better distribute nutrients and oxygen to organ tissues, and penetrate small vessels where they could not reach before.

Thanks to laser exposure, platelets begin to work actively, which normalizes blood clotting.

After irradiation, the elasticity of blood vessels is restored. They expand, thereby reducing blood pressure. Blood circulation in all internal organs is restored, toxins and decay products are eliminated faster.

Leukocytes begin to more actively destroy viruses due to irradiation. The interaction of different types of leukocytes is restored, due to this, immunity improves, pain is reduced, and inflammatory processes are reduced.

Indications for the procedure:

• bronchitis, pneumonia, asthma, other respiratory pathologies;
• sinusitis, sinusitis;
• pathologies of the heart and blood vessels;
• eczema, psoriasis, herpes, urticaria, other skin lesions;
• stomach ulcer, pancreatitis, cholecystitis, gallstone pathology, numerous problems of the digestive system;
• disorders of the nervous system;
• hepatitis of all types;
• inflammation of the fallopian tubes, infertility, mastopathy, other gynecological problems.

There are indications during pregnancy - toxicosis. Used during breastfeeding to increase lactation.

In cosmetology, internal vascularity has found its application. With its help, scars dissolve better and scars are smoothed out. The skin of the face and neck is toned, rejuvenated, and better restored after plastic surgery.

Possible contraindications

This laser cleansing procedure has contraindications. For mental disorders and epilepsy, ILBI is not performed. High temperature for no apparent reason, unstable blood pressure before the procedure are reasons for refusal.

Contraindications include malignant and benign tumors, low blood clotting, hemorrhagic stroke, and taking certain medications, such as heparin. For photodermatoses (allergy to light irradiation), sessions are also not performed.

This method of maintaining the body is not suitable for people with diabetes, active tuberculosis, kidney, liver failure, sepsis, or low hemoglobin.

Before starting treatment, you should consult a doctor. He will determine the indications or identify the reasons for refusal to carry out such therapy. This will help avoid possible complications.

Imaginary danger

Often, when hearing the word “irradiation,” patients begin to fear the procedure.

Asking whether it is dangerous to perform the ILBI procedure (intravenous laser irradiation of blood) and what it is?

The radiation dose during a session is many times less than what a person receives from the sun, talking on a mobile phone, or watching TV.

The laser does not bring anything foreign into the body, to which the human body will respond with illness or disorder. During the sessions, the blood element is corrected, which allows the body to recover on its own.

Due to such characteristics, this method has become universal, effective, and helps with many pathologies.

There are no side effects when performing intravenous laser blood purification. If a person comes to the procedure, following the doctor’s instructions, follows all the recommendations of specialists, then the session is safe.

Advantages of laser procedure

It is difficult to find a similar procedure with such results and numerous indications. The versatility of the method allows it to be used for treatment and prevention purposes.

Benefits of intravenous blood purification:

• does not cause an allergic reaction;
• medications are not used in treatment;
• does not lead to addiction;
• the procedure is painless and is performed without hospitalization;
• recovery time is significantly reduced;
• the positive result lasts for a long time;
• laser treatment in the acute stage leads to recovery;
• a full course of treatment restores the body's reserve forces, which reduces the possibility of a heart attack or stroke.

Intravenous laser irradiation of blood can rejuvenate the body, free it from ailments caused by poor nutrition, lack of physical activity, and bad habits.

Indications for sessions make it clear what a wide range of possibilities this modern high-tech procedure has.

Conclusions

The method of laser blood treatment has proven to be an ideal means for improving the condition of the body.

The effect is observed after the first session. Many patients do not expect that such a positive effect will be exerted on all diseased organs almost simultaneously. Completing the full course consolidates the result, the body’s own restorative forces begin to work, and the immune system is strengthened.

Intravenous laser blood purification is widespread in Russia and is used in Asian countries. In other parts of the world this method is not widespread. Medical science believes that not much evidence has been collected, not enough research has been conducted on the effect of laser on the blood.

Intravenous laser irradiation of blood(ILBI) is a method of blood purification using the influence of light energy on the blood directly in the vascular bed.

What is the therapeutic effect of ILBI based on?

Light therapy has been known since ancient times, and modern technologies have made it possible to achieve maximum effect where previously it was impossible.

Intravenous laser therapy has a wide range of applications. The therapeutic effect is provided at three levels at once:

• quanta of light energy affect blood elements;
• the properties of the blood in general improve;
• a systemic response is achieved at the level of various organs and tissues.

ILBI safety

ILBI is an absolutely safe procedure. At the Family Doctor, laser irradiation of blood is carried out using the ALT Matrix-ILBI laser therapy device. The device has a soft, comfortable and at the same time highly effective effect on the body.

What does ILBI do?

Laser blood purification:

• helps improve immunity;
• has a vasodilating effect;
• improves blood microcirculation, has an anti-edematous effect;
• increases the oxygen transport function of the blood;
• helps reduce inflammation (antibacterial effect);
• normalizes metabolic processes (ensures normalization of protein, lipid, carbohydrate and intracellular energy balance);
• has an analgesic effect.

The healing effect of the procedure lasts from 4 to 6 months.

Indications for ILBI

Indications for intravenous laser blood irradiation are quite varied. This:

• cardiovascular diseases: (CHD), cerebral blood flow disorders, increased blood lipid levels, chronic vascular diseases of the extremities, etc.;
• chronic lung diseases: ; ; ;
• diseases of the digestive system;
• joint diseases;
• diseases of the urinary system: chronic; ; ;
• chronic inflammatory diseases of the ENT organs: ; ; ;
• inflammatory diseases and infections of the genitourinary area;
• skin diseases: seborrhea, eczema, of various etiologies;
• preoperative and postoperative period;
• relieving stress (psychological, physical);
• with a decrease in overall performance.

Laser blood purification can be prescribed for preventive purposes, as well as as part of a course of rejuvenating procedures.

There are contraindications: cancer, fever, thyrotoxicosis, acute infectious diseases, active tuberculosis.

Treatment is carried out by a doctor who has undergone special training. The procedure is performed on an outpatient basis. The duration of the course is determined individually and averages from 3 to 10 sessions. No preliminary preparation for the procedure is required.

Currently, laser therapy is a highly effective method of treating all kinds of diseases. At the same time, it has many advantages over medicinal methods. After a course of laser intravenous blood purification (ILBI), the process of tissue regeneration starts, the body’s defense system is significantly strengthened, inflammation is stopped, pain disappears, vascular tone improves, and metabolism accelerates. In addition, the duration of the recovery period is reduced by three times. According to doctors' reviews, ILBI restores the body's reserves and significantly reduces the risk of developing pathologies that pose a threat not only to the health, but also to the lives of patients.

The essence of the method

The method was developed by Soviet scientists in 1981. Almost immediately it began to be put into practice. Over time, equipment was improved, thereby increasing the effectiveness of the method. According to reviews, ILBI really helps get rid of many diseases and currently has no analogues.

The essence of the method is as follows. A light guide is inserted into the patient's vein. Any available blood vessel is suitable for the procedure. A light wave has a certain length. Getting into the bloodstream through the laser, its energy affects the charge of the cells. The light wave seems to knock out electrons from them, due to which their structure undergoes significant changes. As a result, tissue regeneration processes are launched.

After some time, the cells of the liquid connective tissue return to their previous state. At the same time, all body systems are renewed.

Indications

According to medical reviews, laser irradiation of ILBI helps get rid of many diseases. The method is successfully used in such fields of medicine as surgery, urology, pulmonology and endocrinology.

A doctor may prescribe ILBI if the patient has the following pathological conditions:

• diseases of a dermatological nature;
• allergic reaction;
• infectious pathologies of chronic form;
• diseases of the cardiovascular system;
• acute intoxication process;
• inflammatory phenomena;
• pathologies of the musculoskeletal system;
• drug addiction;
• diseases of the respiratory system;
• neuropsychiatric disorders;
• disorders in the gastrointestinal tract;
• diseases of the genitourinary system;
• acquired lymphostasis;
• autoimmune pathologies;
• diabetes mellitus

In addition, intravenous laser blood purification may be recommended for patients with complications from radiation therapy.

Positive effects on the body

According to reviews, ILBI is an effective treatment method. After the first procedure, the general condition of the patients improves significantly. Doctors say that during treatment the following positive changes occur in the body:

• Humoral and cellular immunity is adjusted;
• improves fluid connective tissue;
• blood vessels dilate;
• all cells and tissues of the body are maximally saturated with oxygen;
• antioxidant activity of the blood increases;
• the process of erythropoiesis is stimulated;
• damaged tissues are restored;
• metabolic processes are normalized;
• the recovery period after injuries is reduced;
• the body's defense system is strengthened;
• the degree of efficiency increases;
• blood clotting improves;
• painful sensations are relieved.

Both doctors and patients claim that timely treatment of the acute form of any illness leads to complete recovery. As for chronic diseases, the duration of periods of remission increases significantly, while episodes of exacerbation occur extremely rarely.

Contraindications

Like any other treatment method, laser therapy can cause side effects. According to medical reviews, intravenous ILBI is a safe procedure that does not cause harm to the health of patients. But only on condition that the specialist took into account all possible contraindications.

Laser irradiation of blood is not prescribed to persons suffering from:

• oncological diseases;
• mental disorders;
• tuberculosis;
• convulsive phenomena;
• photodermatosis;
• hypoglycemia;
• porphyria;
• glaucoma;
• hyperthyroidism;
• low blood pressure;
• pellagra;
• bleeding disorders;
• high sensitivity to ultraviolet.

In addition, according to medical reviews, laser intravenous ILBI is contraindicated for women during menstrual bleeding. The procedure is prohibited for pregnant women at any stage and for persons who have ever suffered a stroke or myocardial infarction.

Methodology

Liquid connective tissue treatment is carried out in rooms equipped with special devices. Judging by the reviews, ILBI is well tolerated by most patients.

• The person is placed on the couch. The doctor measures blood pressure and pulse.
• The skin at the site of the intended puncture is treated with an antiseptic.
• The doctor inserts a disposable light guide into the laser machine and then directs it into the photodetector. The specialist then inserts a needle into the patient's vein. It also contains a light guide.
• The doctor places an indicator above the wrist, which makes it possible to control the laser irradiation process.
• After the required time has passed, the needle is removed from the vein. The puncture site is again treated with an antiseptic.

Judging by the reviews, ILBI is an absolutely painless procedure. The duration of one session is about half an hour, after which the patient can immediately begin performing his daily activities. The course of treatment usually consists of 7 procedures. Sessions can be conducted daily.

Advantages of the method

Laser irradiation of blood does not involve the use of drugs. However, if necessary, the procedure can significantly increase the effectiveness of medications.

In addition, ILBI has the following advantages:

• does not provoke the development of an allergic reaction;
• is not addictive;
• not associated with painful or other uncomfortable sensations;
• reduces the recovery period by three times;
• the therapeutic effect lasts for a long time

In addition, laser therapy helps restore the body's reserve capabilities and significantly reduces the risk of developing life-threatening conditions, such as stroke or heart attack.

Price

It is important to understand that each medical institution has its own pricing policy. In addition, the cost of treatment varies in different regions of the Russian Federation. In this regard, it is recommended to obtain information regarding the service directly from the reception desk of the selected medical institution.

In Moscow, the cost of one procedure varies between 1,000-2,000 rubles. Thus, the price of a full course of treatment in the capital can range from 7,000 to 14,000 rubles. According to reviews, intravenous laser blood irradiation (ILBI) is a highly effective procedure, the cost of which is completely justified. Many patients undergo several courses of treatment throughout their lives.

Intravenous laser therapy is a modern medical procedure that allows it to have a complex effect on the human body. It is believed that such irradiation of blood can help in the fight against various diseases of internal organs and the blood system, and therefore the method is beginning to be actively used in various medical institutions. It is important to note that laser treatment should always be carried out only as prescribed and under the supervision of the attending physician, since the procedure has certain contraindications and possible complications if used incorrectly.

About the method

Intravenous laser therapy is used to treat diseases of the cardiovascular system, endocrine organs, skin, etc. The method is characterized by a high level of safety for the patient and efficiency, which makes it superior to many analogues of physiotherapy.

During the procedure, a laser is placed into the patient's venous vessel, which creates light with a wavelength of 630 nm (red spectrum). Such low-intensity laser irradiation of blood can provide many effects:

• oxygen saturation of erythrocytes increases, which improves its delivery to peripheral tissues;
• the immune system is activated;
• the severity of edema in biological tissues decreases;
• inflammatory processes of any causality are eliminated;
• Laser irradiation can reduce the number of free radicals, which play an important role in a large number of diseases.

Such an effect on the cells and tissues of the body ensures the normalization of the function of internal organs and promotes recovery in the presence of their pathology.

Indications and contraindications

Like any therapeutic procedure, intravenous laser treatment is carried out with strict adherence to indications and contraindications. Indications include the following conditions:

• skin diseases;
• chronic infectious diseases in remission;
• coronary heart disease;
• chronic diseases of internal organs (hepatitis, prostatitis, pancreatitis, etc.);
• diabetes mellitus;
• toxicosis during pregnancy;
• lesions of the musculoskeletal system in the form of arthritis and arthrosis.

In addition, laser treatment can be combined with various types of surgical interventions. For example, high efficiency of lasers is observed when they are used simultaneously with coronary artery bypass surgery.

Laser therapy can be combined with other methods of physiotherapeutic treatment (magnetic therapy, medicinal electrophoresis, etc.).

When using laser treatment, it is also important to consider contraindications that may be identified in the patient:

• the presence of malignant neoplasms;
• increased intraocular pressure;
• active infectious diseases, both acute and in the form of relapses of chronic pathology;
• increased body temperature;
• hereditary porphyria;
• impaired functioning of the blood coagulation system.

If there are any contraindications, the therapist refuses laser therapy in favor of other treatment methods. In no case should you use laser therapy for these conditions, as this is fraught with the development of severe side effects.

Preparing the patient

Effective and safe implementation of the technique requires proper preparation of the patient. Typically, it should include the following steps:

1. The attending physician talks with the patient and explains to him the essence of the upcoming procedure, as well as the nuances of its implementation and talks about possible side effects. Such psychological preparation ensures a high level of patient adherence to the therapy.
2. The patient should be examined for possible contraindications, since if the latter are present, the use of intravenous laser treatment is unacceptable.
3. Before the procedure, the patient’s heart rate and breathing rate are measured, which provides information about the current state of the cardiovascular system.

If a person experiences discomfort or notices the appearance of new complaints before laser treatment, therapy should be postponed until the causes of the new symptoms are identified.

Types of treatment

There are two ways to irradiate blood during laser treatment: directly intravenously or through the skin. Intravascular laser exposure is carried out in the treatment room, since in this case it is necessary to follow the rules of asepsis to prevent infectious complications. In this case, the method is accompanied by pain or discomfort due to the invasive effects of radiation.

When performing the intravascular method, a needle from an IV is placed into a vein, into which a laser emitter is inserted, providing a therapeutic effect. Such access allows for maximum effect on the patient’s body.

Intravenous laser irradiation of blood is significantly more effective than percutaneous exposure.

A safer and painless alternative is percutaneous laser therapy. In this case, the effect on the blood vessels is provided by a special device through the skin, without violating its integrity. Despite this advantage, the effect of the procedure is significantly lower than in the case of intravenous access to the emitter.

Laser treatment is always carried out in the form of a course of therapy. One course consists of 5-10 sessions, each lasting 30-60 minutes, depending on the existing pathology and the severity of the condition.

Carrying out the procedure

When laser treatment is prescribed, the procedure is carried out in a medical institution as part of the provision of outpatient or inpatient care. It is carried out according to the following algorithm:

1. The patient will be placed on a couch or chair, allowing him to take a comfortable position.
2. After treating the skin at the site of the intended puncture, a needle with a special LED is inserted into the venous vessel. The emitting unit of the device is firmly fixed to the patient's hand.
3. The doctor turns on the device that creates laser radiation, setting the parameters of the procedure.
4. After 20-60 minutes, the device turns off and the needle is removed from the patient’s vein.

Intravenous laser therapy is always carried out under the supervision of a medical professional, since during its implementation the patient may experience side effects.

Possible complications

Laser treatment has a high level of safety, which is an important factor in its widespread use in medicine. However, some patients may experience the following unpleasant sensations during the procedure or immediately after it:

• slight dizziness;
• general weakness;
• nausea.

Such symptoms are associated with exposure to laser radiation, which has high biological activity, on the body. As a rule, within 20-30 minutes after the end of the session, all unpleasant sensations completely disappear.

Over 10 years of clinical use of laser therapy methods, not a single case of serious complications has been described. In rare situations, if asepsis rules are not followed, an infectious process may develop at the site where the needle is inserted through the skin. However, when laser treatment is carried out in a medical institution, such consequences do not occur.

Applicable devices

To carry out intravenous laser therapy, various types of devices are used, each with its own application nuances. Today, the most commonly used devices are “Matrix” and “Azor”.

The Matrix device has multichannel laser outputs that allow you to create radiation in various modes - from pulsed to modulated. At the same time, the doctor has the opportunity to constantly monitor the power on the emitting heads, which increases the safety and efficiency of the entire procedure. If necessary, laser treatment is combined with other physiotherapeutic techniques.

“Azor” differs from “Matrix” in the presence of two emitters, which allow a symmetrical effect on different parts of the body, for example, on the area near the spinal column. In addition to the basic emitter, the device is equipped with various LED and magnetic attachments, which allows you to combine physiotherapeutic procedures in one treatment session.

Intravenous laser therapy is indicated for a wide range of diseases: angina pectoris, rheumatoid arthritis, chronic pancreatitis and other pathologies. Prescribing such treatment makes it possible to improve and normalize the functioning of internal organs, returning the patient’s quality of life to its previous level. Laser treatment should only be used as prescribed by the attending physician, which ensures the effectiveness and safety of the technique.
